ANNUAL REPORT 2016–17

This year, against a backdrop of heated rhetoric

and uncertainty, the young people and families we

have the privilege of serving were tested in new and

unexpected ways. And yet, they persevered and not

only succeeded, but inspired.

More and more Identity youth reported

improvements in their social and emotional

well-being, increases in academic achievement

and gains in work readiness and employment. In

short, they pushed beyond obstacles related to

trauma, poverty, language isolation and fear.

In an unusually challenging climate, Identity

youth, staff and Board members were bolstered

by an outpouring of encouragement from new

and old friends. A group of neighbors organized

a book drive for children in our reading program.

Another group made sure summer enrichment

programs were well-stocked with sunscreen, bug

spray and healthy snacks. Strangers attached

heartfelt notes of solidarity to spontaneous

donations. Visionary philanthropists invested

in a new reading program for struggling 3rd

and 4th graders while others funded dialogues

where older youth from communities of color

come together with local police officers to speak

openly and build trust. Elected officials, law

enforcement and school leaders came out to

reassure families that their children are needed,

wanted and safe in our schools.

Behind all of these acts of kindness and

generosity was a simple yet powerful message

to our youth: your community values you and

wants you to reach your highest potential.

Identity’s Board and staff believe that in order to

preserve the values that make it possible for all

youth to thrive in Montgomery County, we must

help strengthen and amplify the voice of the

Latino community. This call to action reaffirms

Identity’s dual commitments to systemic

changes that address disparities in educational

and employment opportunities for Latino and

other at-risk youth as well as to the expansion

and improvement of Positive Youth Development

programs after school, in the community and on

the playing fields.

Make no mistake. This work is challenging.

Today, Montgomery County is home to over

192,000 Latino residents or 35% of the state’s

Latino population (more than any other

jurisdiction in Maryland). Latinos are the

fastest growing demographic in our public

schools, already exceeding 30% of the student

population, and the least likely to succeed. Latino

students here have the lowest kindergarten

readiness rates and the highest dropout rates.

At the same time, Identity and other groups are

being forced to reduce or close down successful

afterschool programs as the federal government

threatens to cut funding. Without a sustained

investment in proven programs we will see fewer

young people clearing hurdles that get in the

way of maturity and successful adulthood.

As we approach our 20th anniversary

(September 2018!), we will invite you to join us

in celebrating the achievements of the tens of

thousands of Identity youth, raising awareness

of the state of Latino youth and lifting up all of

the voices necessary to bring about real equity.

In the meantime, read ahead and see what

our youth accomplished in the last year. Their

progress and your unwavering support cannot

be separated.

Dear friends and supporters,

SINCERELY,

Diego Uriburu, Executive Director

Marta Brito Pérez,  Board Chair

ANNUAL REPORT 2016–17 PAG E 1

After school. In the community. On the playing fields. We help youth, and the

families who love them, improve social and emotional learning skills, achieve

academic success and prepare for work.

In the past decade, Montgomery County has become home to tens of thousands

of Latino families. Latino youth now account for 30 percent of the student

population in the county’s public schools. Many of these youth face tremendous

challenges, but we see them as the bedrock of our community’s future. Our

mission is to create opportunities for these youth to realize their highest

potential, which helps us all create a stronger Montgomery county.

Here are some of our recent accomplishments:

Identity in 2016–17

Latinos in Montgomery County

Identity specializes in providing social/emotional, academic and workforce development supports that increase factors leading to young Latinos realizing their full potential as successful adults, including increasing their family’s ability to advocate for and support their education. At our five youth centers, we support ALL youth.

Latino youth are the fastest growing demographic in Montgomery County. Between 2000 and 2014 Montgomery County’s Latino population increased by 92%, the most dramatic growth of any minority group, and in many ways, they are the most vulnerable group as well. For instance, only 28% of Latino children demonstrate kindergarten readiness, and the Latino high school graduation rate is the lowest of any group in the county at 79.6%.

56% of the youth we serve are immigrants.Some of the immigrant youth have spent years separated from loved ones, eventually reuniting as teenagers or young adults. In some cases, these youth fled their homelands due to civil wars, violence, political instability or economic crisis.

YOUTH/POLICE RELATIONS: With the goal of providing a safe, structured way for youth and officers to speak openly and build trust, our High School Wellness Centers began to facilitate multi-part dialogue circles between youth and police.

REACH: 2,546 clients plus their families were served directly.

SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENT: Our clients reported their levels of self-confidence, school connectedness and risky behaviors moving to the positive. 64% of youth who reported being depressed at intake, reported improvement in outlook at the end of the program. 68% of youth who reported high levels of delinquent behaviors decreased these behaviors by the end of the program.

ACADEMIC SUCCESS: 100% of rising 9th graders from our summer algebra support program successfully passed Algebra I in 9th grade with a grade of C or higher. 74% passed with a B or higher. Mastery of this 9th grade milestone has been shown to improve overall math achievement going forward. The critical thinking skills mastered make high school and college success more likely.

CONNECTING TO WORK AND EDUCATION: 134 youth participated in workforce development programs. 89 disconnected youth reconnected to the educational system, either enrolling in GED classes or re-enrolling in school.

ANNUAL REPORT 2016–17 PAG E 2I D E N T I T Y I N 2 0 1 6 – 1 7

RECREATION: 270 boys and girls participated in the Identity Soccer/Mentoring Program, exercising not just their athletic skills, but their social and emotional skills as well. By teaching teamwork and sportsmanship on the field, Identity was able to improve the ability of youth to deal with frustration and conflict in a positive manner, and participants reported improved conflict resolution skills, self-esteem and positive expectations for the future. 22 youth gained the confidence to try out for their school teams. 17 of them successfully won spots on those teams.

RESTORATIVE PRACTICES: We continue to expand trauma-informed restorative practices for older youth that create opportunities for repairing and building relationships through dialogue. We also began a pilot program to incorporate mindfulness practices during lunchtime detention at the Wheaton High School Wellness Center, giving young people the opportunity to learn coping strategies for better focus, concentration, and stress management.

NEW PROGRAM FOR YOUNGER CHILDREN: Identity created and tested a new out-of-school-time curriculum in reading for struggling elementary students. After only 4 months, the students showed an 88% improvement in their standardized literary assessment. 62% of these children ended the school year reading at or above grade level. We are encouraged by these preliminary indications that earlier intervention will lead to even better academic outcomes when paired with social and emotional skill building. A key part of the success of the program is our signature wraparound support of the youth and their families with case management and behavioral health services when needed.

NEW PROGRAMS FOR OLDER YOUTH: Identity managed the new Wellness Center at Wheaton High School in its first full school year, serving 312 diverse students with our partners Pride Youth Services, Creative Ways Therapy and Artivate.

GIVING BACK: 196 youth in our Wellness Center programs volunteered in the community, earning 1,139 Student Service Learning (SSL) hours. 30 youth volunteered in Identity’s main offices, and another 15 youth volunteered as middle school math tutors and after-school program helpers.

All Identity programs are grounded in the Positive Youth

Development model and work to increase protective

factors such as self-esteem, conflict resolution skills and

self-efficacy levels.

Years of research have shown that strengthening these factors reduces

young people’s potential for engaging in negative behaviors. This approach

builds on each young person’s core abilities and works to increase their

self-management, social awareness, relationship skills and responsible

decision-making.

Our curriculum-based programs aim to build upon youth’s innate strengths,

and provide them with the social and emotional support to grow into

healthy, successful adults.

71%of YOC clients who were neither working nor in school when they enrolled, became employed and/or were reconnected to the educational system, enrolling in GED classes or re-enrolling in school.

Champs!The Identity-Gaithersburg High School team won the spring Soccer4Change championship in June 2017.

The social and emotional curricula aim to enhance protective factors and

decrease risk factors by addressing mental health, reproductive health,

substance abuse, nutrition, physical activity and parent-child relationships.

Social and emotional learning has long term effects. For example, a recent

international meta-study pubished in the journal Child Development found

social-emotional learning participants outperformed their peers academically,

continuing to show positive benefits for years. Identity provides curricula

tailored to developmental age to students in elementary, middle and high school.

Identity is the lead agency at three of the County’s high school Wellness

Centers in partnership with the Department of Health and Human Services

and Montgomery County Public Schools.

In FY17, 1307 diverse youth joined Wellness Center groups for social/emotional

skill building, recreation and community service, as well as individual supports

such as mentoring, tutoring and behavioral health counseling.

Recreation is often the first door a young person opens when exploring

Identity programs. Our bilingual Positive Youth Development Soccer/

Mentoring Program not only provides access to team sports without fees, it

also teaches at-risk Latino youth leadership, conflict resolution and social

integration skills. This program is often the only option for our players to

be involved with competitive sports. We reach youth who don’t qualify for

school sports teams due to poor grades or who are struggling to adjust to

a new home, culture and language, and are therefore especially vulnerable

to disconnection. Year round practices and competitions are made possible

in partnership with Montgomery County’s Department of Recreation,

Department of Health and Human Services and the Street Outreach Network.

Youth also have opportunities to participate in basketball, swimming, hiking,

bowling and other healthy recreational activities.

Since 2006, Identity has been the lead agency in Montgomery County in the

effort to engage disconnected youth by providing a safe-space within the Youth

Opportunity Centers. The ultimate goal of the Centers’ programs and services are

to reconnect youth with the educational system or the workforce, with a strong

emphasis on building their social and emotional skills and improving behavioral

health when needed. In addition, Identity works with the Montgomery County

Police Department and the Department of Health and Human Services to provide

safety planning and relocation for high-risk youth.

71%of youth who initially reported lacking positive expectations for their futures, reported an increase in their self-confidence to accomplish their life goals and/or their ability to deal with problems that they may face in the future.

When I was three years old, my mother had to leave me with my grandparents in Honduras to work in the United States. My heart’s desire was to be back in her arms, and at 16, I joined her in Montgomery County. But the fantasy ended right there. I felt like I didn’t fit in with my new family, a new step-father and two new siblings. I grieved for my grandparents and lashed out at my mother’s rules.

Identity’s mental health therapist, Patricia, showed us how to understand each other’s pain. She taught us to listen to each other, accept each other and work together to move forward.

Identity helped me to believe in myself and connect better in school. I was able to accelerate out of ESOL, complete two AP classes and graduate a whole year early. There’s no stopping me now!

They believed in me and taught me to believe in myself.

LIDICE

Support and Reentry Services

Our new partnership with WorkSource Montgomery has greatly increased our

ability to serve disconnected youth with complicated barriers in their journey

to obtain a GED, workforce skills, and meaningful employment. Substance

abuse prevention and intervention counseling, mental health counseling, case

management and basic ESOL classes are available to every client. With our

multicultural partners, Pride Youth Services, CareerCatchers and Maryland

Treatment Centers, the YOC staff is showing young adults of all backgrounds

the way to reach their own highest potential.

This year the YOCs were reviewed by the Community Review Panel of the

Montgomery County Department of Health and Human Services, who found

the program exceeded expectations in impact, evaluation, civic engagement

and our integrated service delivery approach among others.

Identity believes that every youth deserves a second chance. Given this,

we work with inmates at the Montgomery County Correctional Facility.

They participate in a range of bilingual programs including pre-placement

orientation; individual case management; workshops on fatherhood, financial

literacy and healing; and re-entry dialogue circles. Many of these young people

transition to our Youth Opportunity Center programs for continued support

upon re-entry to the community.

270inmates were served at the Montgomery County Correctional Facility.

77%of clients showed improved self-esteem, and demonstrated a greater ability to resolve conflicts without resorting to violence while involved with the YOCs.

Identity offers engaging, culturally competent academic

support to students who have interrupted education

or who fall behind. From elementary school reading,

to middle school math, summer bridge to high school

algebra and GED classes, all students also receive

our signature wraparound services including case

management and behavioral counseling.

In March, Identity launched a pilot program to improve reading skills for

struggling Latino 3rd graders at Captain James E. Daly Elementary School and

3rd and 4th graders at Stedwick Elementary school, in the belief that earlier

intervention will lead to even better academic outcomes when paired with

social and emotional skill building. As part of the effort, their parents and

families are supported with comprehensive case management and monthly

parent workshops on topics such as child development and how to improve

their child’s educational gains through involvement in the school.

Elementary Schools

Academic Support

Of 63 academically struggling elementary students who received a 13 week reading support program, 62% ended the school year at or above grade level in reading, and 88% of the 3rd and 4th grade students demonstrated statistically significant reading improvement in standardized tests.

Middle SchoolsTwo of Identity’s very successful 21st Century Community Learning Center

programs at longtime partner schools ended this year: Montgomery Village

Middle School and Neelsville Middle School. We are hoping the federal

government continues this successful initiative that showed a tremendous

return on investment in academic, STEM and enrichment activities to

academically vulnerable Latino middle school students coupled with

comprehensive support, education and case management for their parents.

This program will continue through 2018 at Forest Oak Middle School.

The Wellness Centers collaborate with school and health partners offering

a comprehensive approach to improve student learning and academic

achievement as part of the Positive Youth Development model. Wellness

Center programming works to strengthen school connectedness and other

protective factors that have been shown to lead to better academic outcomes.

Identity offers English and Spanish GED classes at our two Youth

Opportunity Centers. Our GED program specializes in providing

disconnected youth up to age 25 with an alternative pathway to a high

school diploma. This year, we increased our investment and capacity in this

program by increasing the number of GED classes we offer at each location.

Our one-stop model is showing great promise for Montgomery County’s

disconnected youth from all backgrounds.

89%of 75 academically struggling youth from our middle school 21st Century Community Learning Center Program passed their 8th grade math class with a grade C or higher.

Parents of these youth report their levels of engagement with their child’s education and school increased throughout the three-year progam, with 100% of parents indicating sustained or improved levels of engagement by year three.

143clients took GED classes at the Youth Opportunity Centers in FY17.

9young people obtained their GED diploma, and another 28 are on their way, having passed at least one of the four GED tests.

At baseline, 31% of youth reported having a negative perception of their school environment. At exit,

69% of these youth reported improvement toward a positive perception of their school environment.

Identity has a growing record of providing youth with help

transitioning to higher education and the world of work.

This year, we continued to invest in capacity, providing an exclusive

workforce development specialist in each of the two Youth Opportunity

Centers. We also have additional resources from WorkSource Montgomery

to provide specialized training and employment services to eligible youth.

Our workforce development programming includes rigorous curriculum-

based job-readiness training; career navigation support; paid and unpaid

work experience; mentoring and coaching; financial and computer

literacy training; GED prep; academic enrichment; and tutoring. We pair

our workforce development with wraparound services including case

management, trauma-informed restorative practices and mental health and

substance abuse counseling.

We strive to help youth experience steady employment, grow professionally

and move toward self-sufficiency.

vulnerable or disconnected youth by strengthening the

Substance Abuse Prevention and Intervention

Trauma-informed mental health services are available to all program

participants. Identity’s bilingual mental health counselors see clients at

the Youth Opportunity Centers and we provide mental health care with our

partners at the High School Wellness Centers. Unfortunately, there were more

clients than we had the funding to serve with 65 clients on the waiting list for

mental health services at the end of FY17.

Identity provides substance abuse counseling in addition to the

prevention and intervention skill building that is woven into our curricula

across programs. We run group counseling as well as individual sessions.

Parent Engagement— A Family Centered Approach

For parents and guardians of the youth enrolled in Identity’s in-school

programs, we offer education and engagement workshops to provide a roadmap

to deeper involvement in their child’s school and education. Workshop topics

include increasing parents’ understanding of grade-level proficiency standards,

online homework systems, report cards and teacher conferences.

Bilingual parent outreach workers also hold regular parent sessions and serve

as the parents’ point of contact and school advocate. Building parents’ ability

to engage with the school and their child’s education has been shown to

directly impact the youths’ success in school and in life.

118is the number of hours of parent education and engagement programming Identity conducted.

100% of the parents involved in our elementary program found engagement workshops ”very useful” or “useful” for understanding important physical and mental health issues affecting their children.

The goal of Identity’s advocacy work is for Latino youth to have access to sufficient resources, supports and

opportunities to succeed educationally, emotionally and occupationally.

As a leader and in coalition, we advocate for systemic changes to policies and practices to bring equity to our

community and to remove barriers that increase the likelihood of a successful transition to adulthood for in-school

and out-of-school youth.

This year, as in past years, we mobilized quickly when events demanded a response or created an opportunity to

make progress.

When the results of the presidential election unleashed anxiety and fear among our youth and their families, we

organized three sessions for more than 350 parents with immigration experts who shared what was known and

where to get additional information and assistance. Members of the County Council, law enforcement and the

Superintendent of Montgomery County Public Schools vowed to protect, educate and value all children as their own.

Recognizing that there is strength in unity, we reached out to new partners in the African American community.

Their children are also suffering the devastating consequences of insufficient resources, supports and opportunities.

Identity continued to co-lead the Montgomery County Latino Advocacy Coalition (MCLAC), a group of community

leaders and organizations that promotes inclusive education practices that support the achievement of Latino

youth and the wellbeing of community members. In FY17 MCLAC pushed for bold reforms in language access

for parents, ESOL programming that enables students to move quickly into mainstream English classes, and

Career and Technical Education for older Latino students who are not on track to graduate because of limited or

interrupted formal education.

Identity amplified the voices of the Latino community for equity in the county’s public safety, health, education and

workforce development systems by presenting results of our independent research:

� We delivered testimony to the Board of Education regarding its proposed budget and to the County Council on

trends in teen pregnancy.

� We shared the results of a survey of 128 newly arrived children who came to the county after fleeing violence

in their home countries. Most of these youth believe that community-based organizations can protect them

from gangs with more recreational activities and academic and career support options.

� We participated in Montgomery Moving Forward, which is monitoring the progress of WorkSource Montgomery

to ensure that the evolving workforce development system meets the needs of disconnected youth.

Identity was established following the mass immigration of refugees fleeing violence in Central America. Nineteen

years later, the exponential growth of the Latino community and its untapped potential underscores what is at

stake today. Working one young person at a time is simply not enough.

Advocacy and Research

In FY17, Identity was recognized for its work with the Latino community: Telemundo honored Identity at the 5th Annual Montgomery County Hispanic Heritage Month Gala and the Montgomery County Executive’s Hispanic Gala honored our Executive Director, Diego Uriburu, with the Advocate of the Year Award presented by Executive Ike Leggett. In recognition of our intensive family case management and parent engagement work, the Maryland Out of School Time Network honored Identity with its Family Leadership 2016 Hero Award. Identity was also honored by the Nonprofit Village with the 2017 Making a Difference Award for our evidence-based programming and strong collaborations with other nonprofits, which magnify our impact on low-income Latino youth and their families.
